Suitable as either a student text or professional reference, Lightwave Engineering addresses the behavior of electromagnetic waves and the propagation of light, which forms the basis of the wide-ranging field of optoelectronics. Divided into two parts, the book first gives a comprehensive introduction to lightwave engineering using plane wave and then offers an in-depth analysis of lightwave propagation in terms of electromagnetic theory. Using the language of mathematics to explain natural phenomena, the book includes numerous illustrative figures that help readers develop an intuitive understanding of light propagation. It also provides helpful equations and outlines their exact derivation and physical meaning, enabling users to acquire an analytical understanding as well. After explaining a concept, the author includes several problems that are tailored to illustrate the explanation and help explain the next concept. The book addresses key topics including fundamentals of interferometers and resonators, guided wave, optical fibers, and lightwave devices and circuits. It also features useful appendices that contain formulas for Fourier transform, derivation of Green's theorem, vector algebra, Gaussian function, cylindrical function, and more. Ranging from basic to more difficult, the book’s content is designed for easily adjustable application, making it equally useful for university lectures or a review of basic theory for professional engineers.

The state of the art of modern lightwave system design Recent advances in lightwave technology have led to an explosion ofhigh-speed global information systems throughout the world.Responding to the growth of this exciting new technology, LightwaveTechnology provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of theunderlying theory, development, operation, and management of thesesystems from the perspective of both physics and engineering. The first independent volume of this two-volume set, Components andDevices, deals with the multitude of silica- andsemiconductor-based optical devices. This second volume,Telecommunication Systems, helps readers understand the design ofmodern lightwave systems, with an emphasis on wavelength-divisionmultiplexing (WDM) systems. * Two introductory chapters cover topics such as modulation formatsand multiplexing techniques used to create optical bitstreams * Chapters 3 to 5 consider degradation of optical signals throughloss, dispersion, and nonlinear impairment during transmission andits corresponding impact on system performance * Chapters 6 to 8 provide readers with strategies for managingdegradation induced by amplifier noise, fiber dispersion, andvarious nonlinear effects * Chapters 9 and 10 discuss the engineering issues involved in thedesign of WDM systems and optical networks Each chapter includes problems that enable readers to engage andtest their new knowledge to solve problems. A CD containingilluminating examples based on RSoft Design Group's award-winningOptSim optical communication system simulation software is includedwith the book to assist readers in understanding design issues.Finally, extensive, up-to-date references at the end of eachchapter enable students and researchers to gather more informationabout the most recent technology breakthroughs andapplications. With its extensive problem sets and straightforward writing style,this is an excellent textbook for upper-level undergraduate andgraduate students. Research scientists and engineers working inlightwave technology will use this text as a problem-solvingresource and a reference to additional research papers in thefield.

Service life estimation is an area of growing importance in civil engineering both for determining the remaining service life of civil engineering structures and for designing new structural systems with well-defined periods of functionality. Service life estimation and extension of civil engineering structures provides valuable information on the development and use of newer and more durable materials and methods of construction, as well as the development and use of new techniques of estimating service life.Part one discusses using fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites to extend the service-life of civil engineering structures. It considers the key issues in the use of FRP composites, examines the possibility of extending the service life of structurally deficient and deteriorating concrete structures and investigates the uncertainties of using FRP composites in the rehabilitation of civil engineering structures. Part two discusses estimating the service life of civil engineering structures including modelling service life and maintenance strategies and probabilistic methods for service life estimation. It goes on to investigate non-destructive evaluation and testing (NDE/NDT) as well as databases and knowledge-based systems for service life estimation of rehabilitated civil structures and pipelines.With its distinguished editors and international team of contributors Service life estimation and extension of civil engineering structures is an invaluable resource to academics, civil engineers, construction companies, infrastructure providers and all those with an interest in improving the service life, safety and reliability of civil engineering structures. - A single source of information on the service life of reinforced concrete and fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) rehabilitated structures - Examines degradation mechanisms in composites for rehabilitation considering uncertainties in FRP reliability - Provides an overview of probabilistic methods for rehabilitation and service life estimation of corroded structures

Since the first edition was published, new technologies have emerged, especially in the area of convergence of computing and communications, accompanied by a lot of new technical terms. This third expanded and updated edition has been adaptetd to cope with this situation. The number of entries has been incremented by 35%. This dictionary offers a valuable guide to navigate through the entanglement of German and English terminology. The lexicographic concept (indication of the subject field for every term, short definitions, references to synonyms, antonyms, general and derivative terms) has been maintained, as well as the tabular layout.
